Product Name glycine C-acetyltransferase
Example Structure Example Structure of glycine C-acetyltransferase EC#: 2.3.1.29
Synonyms 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate CoA ligase, 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate coenzyme A ligase, 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate-CoA ligase, 2-amino-3-oxobutyrate CoA ligase, acetyltransferase, glycine, alpha-amino-beta-oxobutyrate CoA-ligase, aminoacetone synthase, aminoacetone synthetase, glycine acetyltransferase, KBL
EC Number 2.3.1.29
CAS Registry Number 37257-11-7
Comments This is a pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent enzyme that acts in concert with EC 1.1.1.103, L-threonine 3-dehydrogenase, in the degradation of threonine to form glycine [3]. This threonine degradation pathway is common to prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and the two enzymes involved form a complex [4].
Cofactor pyridoxal 5′-phosphate
History
Reactions Acetyl-CoA + glycine = CoA + 2-amino-3-oxobutanoate.
